Social Psychology (General)
Thoroughly updated, with new chapters on: relating difficulty; "small media" technology and relationships, and practical applications, the Fourth Edition offers a fully up-to-date and authoritative review of the field.
This fits well with our field specific module in year 2- we cover assessment and formulation in mental heath nursing. This text will allow students to explore the facets of human relationships and apply to their understanding interactions with themselves, each other and their service users
Gives a good general overview from a social psychology perspective in case students are in interested.
A good resourse to give further insight into the module, building effective relationships
Chose another text by author, more comprehensive and contemporary.
I ordered this book after running a search on the site for 'organisational psychology'. While the book itself is very interesting, providing nice everyday-life examples on complex issues, it is not suitable as a text for organisational psychology students. It may be more suited to a general psychology course, in particular on human relationships. While influenced by organisational psychology, it is not actually on the topic of organisatinoal psychology. It has, nonetheless, provided a number of helpful examples in preparing the course, in particular the section on relationships in the workplace.
This is a good text explaining sophisticated ideas in a easy to understand way
